So excited to share with you all the super sexy yet fun engagement photos of Jessica Hudson and Alan Marr.  Isn’t this couple adorable?  We had alot of fun stepping outside our norm and snagging these beautiful shots of this hot duo.  Never before have we had a groom this plugged in.  Jessica, a photographer herself knew how to rock it and Alan, a creative at heart was a idea master.  He was thinking of fun things as fast as we could snag them.  It was so much fun hanging with these two.  We kicked things off at the Las Colinas Canals and ended things just down the road near Mandalay on the Lake.  Here are just a few photos from this awesome photo shoot.

We had so much fun down in Granbury, TX meeting up with Sarah and her horse O’Neil.  This was the first time O’Neil had ever seen Sarah in something like a wedding gown and he did a fabulous job modeling with us as we ran him around a park with her dressed in white wearing a cathedral length veil.  It was a beautiful day and everything was in full bloom.  We love the days where we actually run out of light before we run out of locations and ideas and this was such a day.  Please enjoy these beautiful bridals.

So although the bride said I didn’t have to share these, I think they are too cute not to share!  One of the things that Sarah and her now husband Patrick enjoy is bow hunting so it was only appropriate that we had some fun with her pink bow!  Aren’t these great!

Sarah is wearing a Sottero and Midgley gown.

Oh my goodness, I am so very excited to share with you all this fabulous whimsical wedding.  This beautiful event took place at the Lone Oak Winery in Burelson, TX.  The bride, an assistant to a wedding coordinator and wedding decor guru pulled together just about every single detail you see here.  She had so many beautiful and fun details that she had her planner Rachel with Rachel’s Events put into play.  Between the two of them I could easily post 100+ pictures of details I just loved, I have however, tried to restrain myself and have shared less than 40 photos! Please enjoy this sweet couple and their gorgeous whimsical wedding.

Isn’t this car amazing!  The brother of the groom saw this car while running errands one day, found the owners and asked them if they would let his brother drive away in their car as their wedding getaway car and they said Yes!  Isn’t that wonderful!  The car is stunning!

Huge thank you to Rachel for sending over her personal assistant Ali to us as we had a wonderful time at this event!

Where to start with Jordan and Leigh Anne’s wedding.  First, I want to say, we adore this couple!  They are so much in love and so cute together just being around them makes you smile.  Second, we love the Dallas Arboretum…combine the two and you have the perfect scenario, except for one little thing…Rain!  Yes, just before Leigh Anne and Jordan’s outdoor ceremony was scheduled to begin, it began to pour down rain, not just a little bit but enough to flood in certain areas.  So a ceremony delay was set in place to see if the rain could let up and low and behold, it stopped.  After some quick thinking by Jonathan and I, we convinced the Arboretum coordinator to allow us to move the reception out of the garden and up underneath a nearby gazebo near the reception hall (which was indoors).  The rest from there was perfection!  Leigh and Jordan were married under this beautiful gazebo with all their guest watching from the balcony and we rolled straight into a wonderful reception.  Here are just a few photos from their sparkling wedding.

I don’t think I could have picked a more fun post to release on Mother’s Day!  Oh My Goodness….do you ever have something you love so much that you are confident that you can not get enough of it?  Well, that is how Jonathan and I feel about Ali Johnson Hankin’s bridal photos!  Man, keeping these under wraps has been very, very hard to do!  Ali married her handsome hubby just yesterday so we are pleased to be able to share these with you today. Amazing photos from their wedding still to come.  We met up with Ali’s amazing planner Rachel of Rachel Events to tag team this beautifully styled photo shoot.  Ali’s mom came along with us to lend a helping hand and off we went.  We started things are the Ft Worth Arboretum and went out into Ft Worth from there.  Here are just a few of the many amazing photos of this absolutely gorgeous bride!

Ali’s gown was designed by her and hand made at Classy Concepts in Mansfield, TX.  She took into consideration that she would be having an outdoor wedding and created the gown so the base barely touched and the bow is fixed.  A brilliant bride!
